Need a name for my catering stall?

[Teddywinters]

Hi guys

I need a new name for my food-stall,I sell mostly fast fast-food,burgers,hotdogs,pulled pork,steak etc

I would like a name what's a little quirky maybe.

What do you guys think off the name 'E'tup'.?

All help much appreciated
Thanks

Names like that are likely to stick the most, so you're definitely heading in the right direction! Try and create a mindmap of words you like and combine them. Something will eventually stand out at you

Which part of the country/world are you going to be based in?

Best of luck!

 

[Teddywinters]

Thanks for the advice,that's great.il be based in northwest/UK attending music festivals/carnivals etc.think I'm sending myself crazy trying to think the perfect name hahaha.cheers

 

[KacperJed]

I can definitely see that name working, so if you like it, go for it! As long as you present it well as a brand in terms of the logo, I think people will take it.

Sorry that I can't think of any suggestions!

 

[Teddywinters]

That's ok my friend.yes I've been researching logos,do you think £220 for a professional looking logo is expensive?sorry I'm new to all this lol

 

[KacperJed]

It depends on what sort of quality you expect. Personally, I think that the price is perfect, because it means you'll get something professional.

I would recommend 99designs, which is a marketplace where you can create a contest and professional designers from around the world submit designs. It'll be around that price, but you will get tens and tens of concepts, and you can choose to get a refund at any time if you're not satisfied - at least you might get a few ideas.

Most brand and graphic agencies aren't likely to charge more than that amount anyway. Some companies in my area charge £500 for a logo, where the result is actually crap

I have no idea!

 

[Teddywinters]

I have no idea!

that's a good name!lol haha

A local roadside stall has a trailer when the shutters are down reads "e colins catering" Trouble is when the serviing hatch/window is open the only noticeable name is E Coli.

So, be a bit cautious with the layout!

Best of luck to you but the festival gig is nails.....

You got yourself a regular pitch yet?

Actually it's not a good name, as difficult to spell and therefore to find on social media.

OP - do some research - what are other similar stallholders at festivals using? Avoid anything too similar.

What is better/different about your food?

Always check to see if anything you choose is available online.

 

[Mirecart]

How about "tastiebits"

 

[ecommerce84]

Agree with ethical pr - it's funny spelling will make it hard to find on social media or online generally.

But that might not be an issue if you are attending different festivals etc and aren't expecting much repeat custom. That said some of these stalls can pick up a bit of a cult following if they do exceptional food.

You could always try your e'tup name and see if people understand it at the first couple of festivals. An early rebrand wouldn't cost the earth if it doesn't work.

 

[npfmedia]

How about a sign centred on you're stall saying Teds Meat Shack? then put pictures of the food your selling either side of the text?

There is a food stand business in my hometown selling hotdogs (3-4 types max) it's called The Hot Sausage Company. Got turned away Saturday as they'd sold out. Another chap round here sells Jamaican food, business name is reggae kitchen.

Hope this helps!

All the best!

With all due respect to @KacperJed that is terrible... absolutely terrible advice with regards to the name...

Yes it sounds OK, but as said previously... the spelling won't work... as a web designer you of all people should have picked up on that with regards to social media...

Perhaps was a bad start to the morning?

With regards to the OP's original question... what on earth is wrong with Teddy Winters? Seriously got a catchy ring to it, is that your real name?

play around with the name Super Teds, Teddy Bear Grillz etc etc ...

Steak Joint

Sam & Ella's is funny... but would it attract the attention you want?

Personally I've always wanted to open a burger bar myself as I cook a mean 5lb burger...

There you go... £5lb Burger... buy a burger, chips and a drink for £5

I'm a bloody genius me... innit!! gerroff my land... that's mine! I'm setting up the webby as we speak... mwuhahahahaha

Substantial - your specialty is a big, meaty, sub-sandwich
Carnalvores - pure meaty pleasure that's so good it's sinful
Get Real - real food for real people
Meatreat - meaty foods to treat yourself

hahaha 5lb pound burger sounds great teddy winters is the name of my German Shepard puppy I do love that name,but would it work for a fast-food stall?what do you guys think? Thanks for the advice haunted-worlds,that's great.

Teddy Winters is a bit like Tim Hortons. It's a name you can remember, not because it says what it is (like Church's Chicken or Burger King) but because it's a name in its own right (like Tim Hortons, Jimmy John's or Carl's Jr.).

Personally, that idea is as good as any I've heard. Plus it has a story behind it.

I'm sure you could tie in the big burger for big dogs idea and combine the giant burger with the story of your wee pup, who isn't a wee thing at all, I'm sure. People love dog stories. I knew a guy who ran Greyhound Taxis - the name gave a talking point many, many times.

Is Harlem particularly known for its burgers?

 

[Teddywinters]

Why not so keen?

I think maybe he doesn't want to name our business after my pet dog,even thou he likes the name and has thought about it hard and long.

 

[Teddywinters]

I guess not??.we just thought it was a cool American sounding name lol,most people in the UK know Harlem is in America.so guessing when they look at my stall with the name harlems,they'll probably think American food??

Harlem hasn't been a bad place since the 1980's. I was there in the 90's after NYC was cleaned up and it felt hella safer than most any major city in America.
